Blood Of Platinum
Chapters 122. After the Genesis bag. 7
Kaito's flat face looks at Ryou as if he wants to throw him out of the hospital room window.
‘If it wasn't for thinking about Kino's feelings as her brother, I would have thrown Ryou out of this room’
Ryou starts to see cynical Kaito.
“What? Don't tell me you're thinking of throwing me out of this room window huh?!”
“Great once you realize it” replied Kaito casually
“Basic thick–“
“Ehem. Ryou...” Kino glanced at the younger brother with a serious look
“.....” and Ryou fell silent
It seems that despite the pain, Kino is superior to his younger brother.
Arkan who tried to think normally returned to the bed and pulled the chair in the corner of the room. From the first moment, he and Kaito continued to tell stories while standing up. Now it was time for him to rest his legs and back by sitting down.
“I'm sorry I made you uncomfortable, Arkan-san” Kino lowered her head to apologize to Arkan
“Ti–no problem. It's not your fault, Kino. Indeed they both have problems with their respective personalities” Arkan trying to be calm while glancing at the two people
Arkan's sentence certainly invited cynical gazes from the two people in question and Kino quickly changed the direction of the conversation.
“Te–last, Arkan-san told me about all of you who went to the black market to save us. Can it continue?”
“Tentu”
Arkan is back.
“We who entered the black market was blocked by a large man who had previously come to the bar with Seren-sama named William or commonly called Will. He was also the one who attacked you and the two kids” Arkan explained
“So. What when dealing with that gatekeeper, you guys face a problem?” Kino asked in a serious tone
“My friend and I, Riz didn't have any significant problems. But, your brother and friend are yes”
“Just so? Ryou? Kaito-san?” kino's face turned pale now
Both silent. They just said that nothing was difficult even after Arkan and Riz entered, they had to fight first with the gatekeeper.
“Then, how was the fight? Did you guys beat him?” Kino asked his sister
“We...we have not beaten him back then, but we were allowed in since we could draw with him” Ryou replied casually
“Play? That's very dangerous, Ryou. What if you and Kaito-san get hurt?”
“It doesn't matter as long as it can save you!” Ryou yelled at Kino
“Ryou..”
After waking up, Ryou immediately looks panicked and immediately apologizes to the brother.
“Ma–forgive me. I didn't. I didn't mean to snap at you”
“Umm, it's okay. I also apologize for speaking out. I know Ryou didn't do it because of your wishes. Sorry”
“It was not–ukh” Ryou looked disappointed at him and did not continue his sentence back
“Bi–can we continue this again, all of you? The atmosphere became a little more gloomy than it was” Arkan tried to tell you in a subtle way
“I'm sorry. Please resume again, Arkan-san” Kino smiled and tried to melt the atmosphere
“Ehem. Alright. Where were we? Oho! Until they both fight. Riz and I weren't there so I don't understand how they got in but..”.
Arkan tells the story of all the events when he and Riz meet with a black market manager. He also said what the characteristics of the two married couples look like to Kino and how all the transactions took place. Arkan also told me how
“So, the corpse of the man named Justin can only save Stelani-chan and Fabil-kun?”
“True. I didn't expect you to know that before I continued my story, Kino”
Arkan is shocked to hear Kino's words guessing just from the initial story of the transaction.
“It...it's just a guess. After all, since Arkan-san said that from the beginning he wanted three people to go free with the corpse of a man named Justin, the manager's response only said two children. It can be interpreted that he just wants to free the two children and does not intend to free me”
“I just realized it when I came out looking for those two kids”
“Finding those kids? What happened to them?” Kino asked Arkan
“They blurred” Kaito answered that question
“Kabur? Did Kaito-san meet with Stelani-chan and Fabil-kun back then?”
“True. Ryou and I met them when they intended to go to the building with the highest floor in the location”
“So you and Ryou found them?” Arkan asked Kaito
“True. At that time, Ryou and I met them. We were told they were running from somewhere where they were held before. It was done for the sake of seeking help to save the life of Kino”
Kino immediately flushed. He did not expect that there were many people trying to help him, including the little boy he had just met.
“Kino, why you?” Ryou looked at the reddened face of the older brother and asked
“I just...feel very lucky to meet good people like you all” he replied with a flushed face
“That's because you are a good person, Kino” Kaito smiled at him
Although Ryou looks fine, yet somehow he looks so sad. Kino glanced at the sister but chose not to say anything.
Arkan went on with all the stories he knew.
“I who came out was suddenly startled by Seren-sama and we went to look for the two children. Until we both found the bodies of the gatekeepers on the main street on the black market. Seren-sama had checked the pocket of the gatekeeper's pants back then and found the gate key in his pocket”
“Don't that mean Stelani-chan and Fabil-kun are still inside?” Kino asked Arkan
“So. Then how did Arkan-san meet Ryou and Kaito-san?”
“When I got to the gate, Seren-sama and I saw someone coming with a cart and it was Ryou, Kaito along with the two children and.yourself inside the cart”.
From here, Kaito takes over the story.
“As I said earlier that Ryou and I met the two children by accident”
“Now, I want to hear more from you about your meeting with the two children, Kaito” Arkan asked Kaito to tell him
Kaito begins to tell me everything he experienced with Ryou.
“At first they were so scared because we both carried a sword. Plus, it seems like they found out that I was the one Justin was looking for. They try to avoid us”
“.....” Kino listened seriously
“Then when I called their names, they stopped. Afterwards, Ryou realizes that the little girl named Stelani brought your dagger and we finally discover that they know of your whereabouts
“You both went directly with Stelani and Fabil to save Kino, then used Riz's wagon to take him? Genius once your idea” Arkan praised the action done Kaito
“It was a little effort to avoid unwanted things” Ryou replied
“What is it?”
“I and Kaito brought two injured people back then, the girl named Stelani and Kino who were seriously injured. If we get involved in a fight then the condition of the two of us who are carrying injured people will be greatly harmed”
“After all, in the end we still met a woman named Seren who was with you at that time, mr. bartender” Kaito added his description
“You're right. Fortunately, at that time there were no more heads floating like you did on–”
“Arkan!!” Ryou shouted
“......!!!” Arkan and Kino were shocked by all of that
“Do not talk again! You've told me everything you know. Kaito and I will tell Kino about something else so shut up!”
Ryou's tone was rising. Arkan still looked calm even though he was quite curious about the sentence.
“Ryou? What's up?” Kino looked curious and confused
He looked at Kaito who did not say anything and lowered his head.
“Kaito-san? Ryou? Did something happen?”
Kaito looked at his pocket watch and the time had shown it at 11:15, meaning it had passed from the clock at that time.
Not long after, a nurse came and asked the swerving person to come out.
“Excuse me, the clock has passed sir. Please allow time for the patient to rest. The next besuk clock will be at 14.00-15.30~~~~ afternoons” said the nurse
“Sorry, this man and I are a family of patients. We will take care of patient” said Ryou who stood up while pointing at Kaito
“I beg you to let your sister and.my cousin to accompany me” pinta Kino to the nurse
By faking Kaito's identity as his cousin, the nurse is forced to allow him because it is the patient's will.
“So. But another master please come out and come back again in the next big hour”
Arkan stood up and looked towards Kaito who was putting something into his cloak pocket.
“Kaito, i.”.
“Mr bartender..thank you very much. You've spent your lunch here telling Kino everything. Next, come with the master manager, those kids and Riz”
Arkan could only stare at the two people with astonished gazes as he muttered in his heart.
‘Oi oi, this is no ordinary tension. It's worse than I thought! Looks like I should indeed come out this time and not make them more emotional on me’
Arkan approached Kino once more and patted him on the shoulder quietly.
“Cheal fast yes. Theo and the kids are eager to eat with you”
“Thank you. I'm glad Arkan-san told me everything. Thank you so much for helping and taking care of my sister and Kaito-san. Thank you for also caring about Theo-kun and the others”
“I permissi”
Arkan may be smiling at Kino, but his eyes do not take his eyes off Ryou's pale, depressed look. He also had a chance to see Kaito who just smiled faintly at him.
After he left with the nurse, he left.
Inside the treatment room, there were now only Kino and the other two people. He looked at them with a puzzled look, yet tried to act ordinary.
“Are you two not hungry yet? Come to think of it, we haven't had lunch and are too engrossed in telling me”
“.....” both do not answer Kino
Ryou, who was standing up, suddenly hugged his brother while crying.
“Hiks...forgive me..”.
“R–Ryou?! What's up?” Kino was surprised because the sister was crying in her arms
“Hiks. Please don't hate your sister. Hiks..forgive me..forgive me...”.
“Ryou? Wh why? Kaito-san, what exactly–” is
“I'm sorry, Kino”
Kaito lowered his head with a sorry look. Now, Kino could only look panicked and did not understand the current situation.
